Everything is louder at night time.

Is it just me, or does everything seem to be louder at night time when you’re trying NOT to be loud? The simplest things, such as a coffee cup being placed on the counter or a door closing, all just make the loudest damn noises in the world when you’re attempting to be quiet. During the day everything is fine and dandy, but as soon as the lights go out normal sounds turn into war zone sounds. The quiet normal footsteps turn into dinosaur stomps, the opening of a refrigerator turns into an army tank shooting, the flush of a toilet turns into Niagara Falls and anything else that doesn’t make noise during the day seems to magically turn into a big fucking boom. I wished someone could explain this to me because I honestly don’t get it. No matter how hard I try to keep the sounds to a minimum at night, I always seem to fail. If I didn’t know any better I’d say that this loud night noise phenomenon is some type of government conspiracy. If you have a better explanation I’d love to hear it.
